Dreamweaver

Nancy helped me four years ago to set up XAMPP Apache PHP developer on DW. I use it for ±30 sites without a problem. I hope that she or someone else can enlighten me as to how to correct this glitch. On a new site and a new directory, to which I applied XAMPP, I seem to have an incorrect pathway to this new site's pages. When I right-click a file in this new site (using Mac Catalina), the "Open in Browser" option opens and I select Safari. However, the page does not open. Instead, Safari shows this error message. . .I suspect that the referenced pathway error indicates that I loaded the site's files in an inappropriate Applications folder location. I say that because, instead of seeing the hyperlink start with the usual "localhost/..." this new site's hyperlinks start with "file:///" (see arrow above). This problematic site's files are in a different directory (titled "searchers") than the root directory "WCD" whose files all open locally without a snag. This next screenshot

I have a website that uses HTML5 and PHP.  I use DW 21. When I submit the pages to W3C validation, any page with a <?PHP> tag on it generates a validation error.For example, this line <?php if (!isset($_SESSION)) { session_start(); } ?> generates this validation error:Error       C:\xampp\htdocs\Partnership\index.php Saw <? . Probable cause: Attempt to use an XML processing instruction in HTML. (XML processing instructions are not supported in HTML.)      2 I'm sure this is because the php commands have not been stripped out before it gets to the validator.  Is there a way to avoid these errors?

I just upgraded to 21.0 and wondering if anyone else is having an issue highlighting text in design mode. I have my screen set up as split view with design view on the left and split view on the right. When I try to highlight text on the design side, it highlights the text in the code side instead of the design sign. That's very confusing and hard to make sure I'm highlighting what I need to.

My live view is has grey borders and is ineditable after Big Sur. I noted an earlier thread that suggested resetting the preferences would fix it but it hasn't.It happened when I installed the Big Sur beta (yes I know ...) and I assumed it would come right with the full release, but no. Is there easy solution or should I reinstall. Thanks

I could easily go in a spree of curse words, insults, and a burn it all down tirade over Dreamweaver and how it is an abject disaster, compromising my ability to make a living in web development. But I won't because it doesn't do any good. Adobe, why do you hate us? Why do you torture us with masochistic glee. I've cancelled my subscription. Way to go, Adobe. Good riddance. 

In the documentation for DW (when you can find it), regarding live view, it states DW will automatically insert paragraph tags when pasting text. Mine does not, no matter if I use CTRL-V or EDIT-PASTE. If I hit enter to start a paragraph in a blank doc to add my content, it inserts 2! Both have non-breaking spaces in them. Handy, having to remove the extra, then the space, then add my text. Making things far slower and complicated. Then, there's the paragraph splitting, which is the main issue I'd love some help with. If I paste something in that needs to be broken into paragraphs, there's no way to do this that I could find other than manual code edits. In design view, it's place the cursor, hit enter, it splits it (end one, begin a new one). In live view, that same key makes it so you're editing that block/P. No keys I hit from there will split it into 2 as it does in design mode. Tried insert paragraph...it inserts a full pair at the start of the paragraph (or before/

Ok I have a project I need to do and it is calling for bootscrap.  Where do I find this when I create a new site.  Does CS6 even have it?

At the bottom of this page conald marlow there is a gap between the final ruler line and the top of the footer.  I cannot see why this gap exists. I have a slight suspicion it may be  something to do with my ‘sticky footer’ which I have copied from css tricks  (I am using the first of the five methods described there).  I say  this because there is a div in that gap used by the ‘sticky footer’ with a class of 'push'  but it’s only 50px but that does not account for the rest of the gap. There are other pages in my site that do not have such a gap, take a look at  annie or harry  I have validated the html and the three css files involved and looked at the page with Firefox Developer tools but still cannot figure out why that gap exists – help!

I just got a weird message.  The page shows properly.  However, at the BOTTOM, this miessage appears:Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Serialization of 'PDOStatement' is not allowed in [no active file]:0 Stack trace: #0 {main} thrown in [no active file] on line 0 Does anyone have any idea what this means or where I might look to find the problem? Any advice will be appreciated!  Thanks... 

Hello All.  I am using a Bootstrap 4 navbar that is a server side include.  Since the navbar is pulled from the server to each page - there are many - is there a way I can get the navbar to make the page it is on active/highligted in the navbar?Thanks for your help..

Hi,I am starting to work with Dw templates. I am trying to nest an editable optional region inside a repetitive region and the problem is that each time a new repetitive region is inserted, the nested editable optional region bears the same name, so any modification of the template modifies all editable optional regions with the same name.How to resolve this problem ?Thansk for any hint.Jacob[Moderator: moved from Creative Cloud to Dreamweaver Support forum.]

I've created a new class for the footer and want to change the link colors but when I try, it says my a:link etc are invalid CSS.  What am I missing?  Is this a bug?  It seems to me that adding, editing css is not as easy as it was. I have selected hyperlinked text in the footer area to try and modify the colors. 

Hi,   I added an image to a page from another location on my harddrive.  DW used to copy the image or ask me if I wanted to copy it to my current directory. It is no longer doing that. Is there a way to fix it? 

I have my site up and running about 6 months and upload through cyber duck. On the index page I have a slideshow of photographs that I change regularly through my CSS page. All working well until I changed the photos again and it looks perfect locally but when I load it through cyber duck the photos have not changed. Can anyone help please? This is my first we page. I just can't figure out what's going on? Thanks Rachel

"Revocation information fo rthe security certificate for this site is not available. Do you want to proceed? "Again DW 20.2 and on a Windows 7 laptop.  The certificate in question is valid in fact it is happen with any site that has a certificate.Lasy week I was receiving a weird Javascript error.  I corrected it by deleting the cache.  I have tried that it is did not help this problem. Thank you for an ideas you may have.  I am having Windows 10 installed next week so I won't be reinstall CC until after that.

Hi, Is Insert>Form>Jump Menu no longer available in DW 2021? I haven't had need of it for quite a long time but I do now and I don't see it available in either the Insert menu or Insert panel. Is it called something else now and I'm just missing it?  Thanks,David

Until recently, I've had a field below the code field in Dreamweaver that identified problems in the code, such as extra or missing </p>. It has disappeared, and I can't figure out how to get it back. Any ideas? It's Dreamweaver 21.0 for Mac thanks

Using DW 2021, just updated itself. I am in CODE view with VBScript language option in the lower right pulldown.  When I tap the spacebar it does NOT insert a space like every other program in the world does, but it moves the entire line of code like 3 tabs to the right. Even if I try to insert a space somewhere in the middle of the line of code, the whole line moves tabs at a time.  I have another DW installed on another computer under my account, but it is 2020; it does not do this.  I tried to upload the settings from that one and load the setting from the cloud to the 2021 one, but nothing makes a difference unless I change the language to something else like HTML, but then the colors are not right.  I have compared Preference Settings across both computers and I can not figure this one out.  I rarely post to forums, but this one is driving me notes.Thanks Ahead

dynamically-related files could not be resolved because your credentials don't allow file activity on the server Thats the error im getting. I am using XAMPP server on my test system, I purchased a CRM from CodeCanyon. After setting up the CRM there was only a couple things I wanted to change/add. If i get this Dynamic-related files to work, will it show me other files that are linked with the file I am editing? If so, how do I resolve this issue, as I am looking for a code section, but codeigniter has files all over the place that link to what I am looking for. I can provide more information if you need it. just let me know what you need to possibly help me.

Happy Thanksgiving to all. Can someone recommend a tutorial for setting up a Bootstrap carousel in Dreamweaver? Especially for how to add images in the easiest way. Thanks.Kevin BurkeCambridge, Massachusetts
